Have had tinnitus since I was 18. Mine was definitely brought on by playing drums w/o earplugs for a while. Studies have also shown smoking puts one at greater risk for hearing loss through oxidative stress on protective mechanisms within the hair cells. I smoked almost pack a day for 11 years. I'm positive this further worsened my tinnitus and gave me very very minor hearing loss.

Supplements I can think of off top of head that have been demonstrated to help are magnesium, NAC, vinpocetine, ginkgo. They all seem to have negligible effects on me as far as T but possibly the vinpocetine works the best.
